I believe this can be marked as Answered.

This is incorrect. VSE 8.5 and VSE 8.7 are not managed via the VSE 8.8 extension, therefore, using the properties for VSE 8.8 would not find systems with older versions of VSE. You would need to query the systems for product ID VIRUSCAN8500 for 8.5 and VIRUSCAN8700 for VSE 8.7.

Re: Detect VSE 8.5 and VSE 8.7 Systems under EPO 5.x

Hi all,

thanks for the input. As explained, VSE 8.5 and VSE 8.7 cannot be managed with any EPO 5.x version, because there is not extension available.

We have a second problem. If the Engine 5800 is installed on a System with Windows XP SP2 the VSE Plugin for VSE is completely disabled (KB60593). You can see the following entry in the Agent LOG: Unsupported Service Pack - has been reached to end of life.

At this moment, we do not know if an old VSE 8.5 is installed or VSE 8.8. We cannot reboot the systems like we want, because they are all "industry systems". Now, it the VSE plugin is disabled, we cannot see any VSE version under "installd products" any more....

Additional, you cannot directly upgrade from VSE 8.5 to VSE 8.8....

, thanks for you explanation, but as you can see the filtering is our "big problem".

as you can see it is a litte bit more complex. 🙂

The result is, we cannot filter in EPO in any way for old VSE installations.

At the moment, we are trying to get the SIR Tool to check if VSE 8.8 or VSE 8.5 is installed on the systems.
